'We no longer have freedom of the press,' Trump declares

President Trump again slammed the media on Sunday, declaring that “we no longer have Freedom of the Press!”

He made the comment in a Sunday morning tweet where he also said: “Journalistic standards are nonexistent today.”

Trump’s post was in response to a tweet blasting ABC News for not airing a report about Jeffrey Epstein while publicizing accusations of misconduct against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation process.

The president has frequently attacked the media in the past.

In a tweet months ago, he wrote: “The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! They can’t stand the fact that this Administration has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first 2yrs. They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!”
